Stardander Revenant (tuxdb.com)

Griselda and Dianthus are both students at Stardander School for Witches, but they could not be more different. When Griselda nearly dies during a fae attack and Dianthus retreats into isolation, their lives - and fates - become entwined. Can Griselda bring Dianthus back to the “living world?”
As Griselda, a playful young witch, you can:

Choose which classes to take each week
Learn new spells
Battle (or befriend) wild fae creatures
Try not to fail your Connection magic class
Do your best to participate in the Hallow’s Eve Bout - a spellcasting competition that could excuse you from final exams!
Choose how to interact with your frenemy Dianthus - your choices will determine how things play out between them.
